Bkt Selambau : The Hindraf Dilemma

The following is a response to a letter published on delCapo. He obviously wrote and articulated himself quite well. Much of what was said was very true. However the insinuation that people have forgotten the contribution of "Hindraf" in "shaming the people into action" in the March 8 13th GE is unwarranted.

The writer said,"Have we forgotten the role that Hindraf played in making 8/3/08 possible? These are the people who, in their pain & desperation could do nothing else but put their bodies & their lives in the path of the FRU & their chemical cannons."

To this I'd like to ask them (Hindraf) in return - that, have they forgotten what it takes to bring real change? Don't they know that in real life, melodrama don't carry that much weight?
Let us be clear on one fact - while that protest/demonstration did "galvanize", the reason for its effect was very much due to the fact that it came at the heels of the Bersih rally and the widespread online campaign which was going on long before. It was successful beyond the wildest imagination of even the organisers themselves! Let it also be clear that at that time "Hindraf" was still avery much a pro-MIC/BN grouping which insisted that they support the leadership, and only the "delivery system" need be rectified.
It was only when they were snubbed by MIC/BN, that they turned to Pakatan Rakyat for support. Nevertheless, they did work together then, to achieve the March 8th tsunami, and PR did speak up for them, while the MIC/Umno/BN regime demonized them
So - who forgot whose contributions here, if I may ask?

Don't they realize that the anarchist street protest is the easiest part in starting a psychological revolution? That consistent & sustainable ideas/ leadership is pivotal in achieving it's goals?
Have they forgotten that it was PR which spearheaded the campaign to free ISA detainees?
That while street protests may ignite the flame, it cannot keep the fire going unless there is political leadership & will? That PR does not fight on a racist platform?
Don't they realize that they themselves have betrayed their own cause?

Do they realize that they have been "compromised"?
That PR isn't as naive, and are quite aware as that "racist moles" are quite active within the folds of the apparently "rudderless hindraf leadership"?
That "Rome was not built in a day"?
The following was my response to Malaysian Heart's letter:

====================================

The writer is mistaken in that he appears to presume that Malaysians have lost their sympathy for the issues represented by “Hindraf” on 25/11/07. This couldn’t be further from the truth. What has turned many away from the people who claim to be “leaders” (and many do claim it for themselves), is the fact that they sell themselves and their ideas in a very negative manner.
They have thus far only spoken from their own sectarian perspective and interests, and refuse to support any party unreservedly, despite having been given voice by the PR allies.
This they do, despite having been voiceless and spat on by BN for 50yrs!!

While what has been said may be very true, I believe that many hold to the idea that “Hindraf” is a cohesive organization. The fact of the matter is - it isn’t!
It is nothing but a “rag-tag” army of individuals with no real leadership. Worse still, few of their real “leaders” are politically savvy. They cannot articulate their ideas well and as such, don’t communicate well - not even among their own. With a vast majority of them only understand a sectarian agenda and nothing more. Anything else is beyond their comprehension - and educating their own doesn’t seem to be much much of a priority. The intelligentsia have all but abandoned them or has been incarcerated, and they are left with only the “mercenaries” shouting slogans.
They are prone to emotional reactions and generally speaking - have a quarrelsome attribute, which ultimately make them gullible to “propaganda”. With these characteristics, is it any wonder that they have fallen prey to the ministrations of Sammy Value and the BN racist politics?

With the many mercenaries in their fold, to hope that they get rid of their “selfish interests” would be a pipe-dream. They (the so-called “hindraf”) are so badly “penetrated by the “intelligence” of the BN that there is no conceivable way to determine who’s the “trojan” anymore. As a matter of fact, even the “leadership” has some difficulty in determining this.

It is very obvious that they (those claiming to be “coordinators”) have fallen victim to the MIC propaganda or “coercion”. This is evident from the “sympathy evoking” hospital visit of Sammy Vellu to see Thanenthiran. It is mind boggling that the media should highlight that Thanenthiran had a “heart attack”, but was in “cervical traction” instead of under CICU monitoring for the said “heart attack”. To make matters even more “glaring”, he has made a statement deriding the PR leadership for not calling or paying him a visit as Sammy did.

Any sane man will know what is happening here.
“Hindraf”, Makkal Sakthi or whatever this group may be had better get more organised and buck up- or they will just fragment and be merged once again under the MIC flag - for peanuts - in the name of “Indian Unity”!

While their case may be just, their ideas, leadership & “methods” leave much to be desired ….. therein lies the problem.

Celebrating Delicacies - "Fish-Head Curry" ......

Before we get to the Fish head Curry story, here's how BN goes "fishing" ...
with Zahid Hamidi, the newly-elected Umno vice-president and Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department in-charge of Islamic affairs - in attendance!!!!

.

While our future disHonorable Crime Minister is actively on a Public Relations offensive exercise, this is what SusanLoone had to say about it:

ONE MALAYSIA - what it means

Oh yes! I think I know what you mean by ONE MALAYSIA.

One word, one thought, one action.

No disagreement. No criticism.

Judging by all the recent crackdown, it can only mean:

The ONE MALAYSIA that agrees with YOU!

Everyone else goes MISSING!

********************************************

In the Spirit of Missing Persons, probably still in "protective custody", I re-post my last year's tribute to Fish-Head Curry. So here goes ......

LATEST:
KUALA LUMPUR, July 5 ─ P. Balasubramaniam
─ the man behind the now infamous statutory declaration
─ and his family have gone missing.

======================
"Don't we do something that can
destroy what we have done?!?!?!?"
===============================

After spending hours with Bala taking notes of his testimony previously and being familiar with his character, Americk said, ” I am very sceptical that he has signed the second statutory declaration of his own free will and I am convinced he has been intimidated to do so by either threats or promises, as I can think of no other reason.”

Bala then spoke to the ASP and left at around 4.45pm. Americk assumed he was going to meet the ASP at about 6.30pm as they had been talking about having
fishhead curry at Brickfields, said the lawyer.

He said Bala had signed the first declaration in front of a commissioner of oaths - someone whom Bala recognised as having grown up in the same Slim River neighbourhood as himself - on his own free will.

“I am therefore extremely surprised that Mr. Bala, in the space of 24 hours, has engaged the services of another lawyer and affirmed another statutory declaration swearing the first one was untrue and that he was forced to sign it,” said Americk.

======================
"I mention this as a principle,
meaning if we love our country we must realise that
to build a country like Malaysia is not something easy.
Don't we do something that can destroy
what we have done."

LATEST:
KUALA LUMPUR, July 5 ─ P. Balasubramaniam
─ the man behind the now infamous statutory declaration
─ and his family have gone missing.

"After retracting the declaration, Balasubramaniam snuck out without answering any questions from the press. His nephew, Kumaresan, said that the private investigator and his family have not been seen since yesterday.

This latest twist is going to make an already messy situation worse and give credence to claims by the Opposition that Balasubramaniam felt compelled to revise his statutory declaration because he and his family had been threatened."

In another development, I thought the Quran Reading Competition was going on .....

Primetime News and "information" has taken a Religious twist with

Quran recitals and the Melaka History,

condemning "Fitnah" that can destroy Islam & civilization itself!

Somebody must be really shaken up and "under duress" with all the "fish head curry" and SDs in town......

Reminds me of what Russell Peter's dad used to tell him-

"Somebody's gonna get hurt real BAAAAD!

Mickey Mouse doesn't come to cheap anymore, I guess ..... unless of course
he also went looking for some "cheese" to make the journey more pleasant.

Khir Toyo's Disney tours cost more than RM1 million

By Asrul Hadi Abdullah Sani (MalaysianInsider)

SHAH ALAM, April 1 - Selangor investment arm Perbadanan Nasional Selangor Berhad (PNSB) paid a total of RM1.85 million for former Selangor Menter Besar Datuk Seri Mohd Khir Toyo's Disney tours to both Paris and Orlando in the United States.

The trip to Euro Disney was from 26th till 30th December 2004.

Khir and his delegates first went to Morocco and then had a five day transit in Dubai before going to Paris at a cost of RM416, 863.

The transit in Dubai cost an additional RM10,000.

The official delegation spent a total of RM416,000 and a team which went to make arrangements for the trip spent RM366,000.

Khir's second Disney trip was to Orlando from 23rd December 2007 to 1st January 2008, costing RM646, 841.

The delegates were also given an additional USD30,000 "pocket money" and therefore the total expenses for the trip amounted to RM750,000.

The state government paid RM336,531 first class tickets for airfare to Orlando and Honolulu while RM305,800 was spent on accommodations with Khir's suite in Orlando costing RM110,000.

The revelations were made today by PNSB chief executive officer Khairiyah Abu Hassan during an inquiry conducted by the state's Special Select Committee on Competence, Accountability and Transparency (Selcat).

Dang, man! This Saiful is such a fool ... couldn't he have chosen the Toyo to be a coffee boy for?

Did Someone Just Insult our YDPA??

.............................

.............................

Cabinet ministers, mentris besar and chief ministers have received invitations to attend the swearing-in ceremony of Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak as the country’s new Prime Minister at Istana Negara on Friday. Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz confirmed that he had received the invitation card for the ceremony, which was sent to his office at Parliament House.
-StarOnline

====================================

Is it not an insult to the esteemed office of the YDPA, if they were to preempt the prerogative of the DYMM YDPA, and send out "Invitations" to a ceremony that has yet to be approved?
But then again - maybe, just maybe, Umno doesn't know of any authority beyond the supreme office of the Umno Baru President?
They can call anyone "NATANG", and it's cool - so what's this, right?
They decide what is legal & illegal.
They decide who gets to be C4-ed.
To them they decide what is right & wrong.
They decide what is proper & improper, what is justice & injustice.
They decide what words can and cannot be used in speaking to an audience (or praying).
They decide who is Mamak, who is Melayu, who is Bumiputra, who is "pendatang", who is "derhaka".
But of course ... this is Demo(n)cracy - Umno style!

"This is Ketuanan Umno, Buddy!!
Umno decides on everything - even what you can think & do!!
As a matter of fact, Umno can decide if you are an illegal or a criminal, if it chooses to.
You non-Umno scum - you know nothing, and are nothing".

For all their histrionics about others questioning the Royalty, Umno themselves seem oblivious and immune from this same criticism, when they were screaming "CHANGE" ad nauseaum at their recent (but delayed 2008) AGM.
Poor ol' Umno-ites .......

"They who've had their eyes put out, reproach others for their blindness"

ALTAN ..... Oops!!! The "gods"/PDRM must be Crazy!!

HOORAY!!! We now have a new "threat to national security"!!!
The Mongolian Name of - AltanTUYA.....!!!

pic from "justice"
Altan's Mongolian Ghost must be haunting PDRM or is it ???!!!
Can't you just tear gas or water-cannon or maybe even ISA it?
Dang, man - It does hurt "somebody" sooo bad, doesn't it?

You can’t mention ... that woman, PKR told

TAIPING, March 31 – Campaigning for the Bukit Gantang and Bukit Selambau by-elections has run into a bizarre roadblock, with the police stepping in to dictate what PKR cannot say or do in the intense battle to win votes.

They must not mention Altan … err, a certain Mongolian model, now deceased.

A PKR source said that was one of the conditions police imposed on the party when it applied for ceramah permits.

A certain Ruler’s decision, matters of race and religion and other “sensitive” issues are also forbidden.

In addition, PKR must also ensure that the crowd at its ceramah is confined to a specific area where the event is being held.

Perak PKR deputy chief Chan Lih Kang told a press conference that the party would not appeal against the restrictions but would defy them and face the consequences.

“They cannot stop us from exercising our freedom of expression,” he said.

The same restrictions do not apply, apparently, to Pas, who have only been told to stop their ceramah by 11pm.

The murder of Altan … err, she-who-cannot-be-named, has proven to be acutely embarrassing for Umno’s new president and prime minister-in-waiting Datuk Seri Najib Razak, whose aide was acquitted of murder.

Najib has repeatedly denied ever meeting the woman.

PKR man faces cheating rap

RPK published a letter from a Naragan who claims to be a "voice of 'Indians'" in the racist BN/MIC Malaysian landscape. As RPK mentioned, this guys keeps on bitching and whining about racist discrimination, while at the same time insisting on speaking on an ethnocentric & racist platform.
After getting "bitch-slapped" in the comments section in his two earlier letters, he decided to take on RPK, and write a letter saying "Bodoh RPK" - (which RPK has published in "No Holds Barred") that too, while complaining about the very same issues brought up by RPK for ages.

Yup - they tried to appeal to racist sentiments of Malaysians first. Then they try to discredit RPK in his attempt to create awareness.
They seem to try recruiting aficionados from Malaysia Today, just as during the time they tried to recruit guys to support their "Putera MIC" (which was supposed to be "an NGO-like" organisation) - and of course failed miserably.

This newbie Naragan, obviously has woken up from a very deep sleep and has realized that his sweet dreams were nothing but a nightmare due to this disease brought about by the racist/ "estate" politics. Either that, or he's just another "Trojan" planted by the SB/ MIC/ BN - just as all the "independents" contesting in Bkt. Selambau, and the "disillusioned PKR members" who sought candidacy under the PKR ticket. It appears that these slogan-savvy "fighters" choose a very convenient time to make demands of a party in an infant electoral pact that has given them voice when their non-existent organisation has no track record any achievement since 25.11.07 ......
BTW - despite their "denials", they've been spotted associating themselves with their political masters in the BN camp (yes - the very ones who treated them like anjing kurap/ sori nai for 50yrs.

The sad part is, although he (Naragan) claims to have woken up, and he now finds himself in a "strange land", with "strange politics" he fails to understand. Sadder still, he peddles the same old race politics which he just cannot shake-off.
Poor Hind-ruffians --- Sigh .... indeed, old habits die hard.

The following were my comments in response to the letter and another commenter called "temenggong" (temenggong's comment directed at me is accordingly published):

Dear Naragan Bodoh,
You must be so sore from all the whacking that you decide to let it out on RPK.
You really are an ignorant and Racist piece of work, aren't you?

You must be thinking that everybody else and RPK (me included) are unaware of the "poor old dispossessed morons", who were staunch supporters of that pirate you call "thalaivar".

Now that you guys have woken up from that slumber party you've had for 50yrs, and realized that you have been sodomized & deepthroated by "thalaivar", you presume that the whole world owes you a favour. As such, you believe that all & sundry have to accede to your demands, as you guys demand instant this and that.

Good for you guys - now that you think you are so powerful, you can put about another 10 heroic candidates to contest in bkt selambau & every other area you guys crap on. it will help the thalaivar you guys worship. It may make you look like Tamil movie heroes.
Maybe that will help you feel empowered, even if you get further sodomized.

Meanwhile, keep bitching and whining when you're treated like scum of the earth - your thalaivar will be so elated, he may decide to build a temporary temple or a crappy tamil school for you guys (and maybe another toddy/moonshine shop).
That's Ketuanan Tamil for you ....

I'm really tempted to call you a K#L%#G Bodoh, but I shall refrain.
Cheers, Naragan!

It is MIC's ploy to field 13 more candidates in Selambau to confuse the voters and divide the opposition and malay votes. It has nothing to do with Hindraf.

Cruzeiro, you have issues with Indians and your prejudice is showing!

Temenggong,
FYI, "Hindraf" doesn't exist - anyone who shouts "makkal sakthi" is apparently in support of "hindraf". And they have been "penetrated" by IPF/MIC/SB thru & thru.
Their show is slipping, and their slip is showing, mate!

You damn right I have issues with "indians" (apparently, despite being one myself) - but only their "stupid pride". The bodoh-sombong ones who pretend that nobody knows the dynamics of BN politics, which they unwittingly support.

You damn right it is MIC/IPF working thru "independents", temenggong - and "Hindraf" is working with them if not against them. Instead of cribbing & whining like babies, they should make a stand for or against Pakatan's candidate.
Tell me you got no "issues" with that, temenggong - then we know where you stand where "prejudice" is concerned.
